When Cheng Shuyan and the others returned to the front hall, Master Xiao Yuanzhao and his apprentice had already left, leaving only Master Wuwei and the ancestor of the Li family drinking tea in the front hall.

Seeing Cheng Shuyan coming back, Wuwei Zhenren also stood up and said goodbye.

Before the two of them left, they heard a panicked shout, "Something happened!"

When they turned around, they saw a member of the Li family stumbling towards the main hall. He kept vomiting blood and his face was abnormally flushed.

Before he could run to the main hall, he stumbled and fell to the ground. His body twitched for a moment and then he became motionless.

"It's the Blood Spirit Curse!" An elder of the Li family was immediately shocked when he saw this. "It must have been that crazy woman Wu Yuelan who did it!"

The Li family patriarch had a gloomy expression and cold eyes. He turned to Li Zhiyi and ordered, "Entertain the guests well. Everyone else, follow me!"

In the main hall, apart from Cheng Shuyan and Li Zhiyi, who were in the Qi training stage, the others were the four foundation-building cultivators of the Li family, accompanying the Li family ancestor and Wuwei Zhenren.

Family disgrace should not be made public, so the ancestor of the Li family naturally did not want to let Master Wuwei get involved in this matter. The several foundation-building cultivators were the main force of the Li family's combat power, so he could only instruct Li Zhiyi to entertain the two of them.

Li Zhiyi was still dazed until he heard the voice of his ancestor, and then he came to his senses.

She nodded blankly and said yes, then walked up to Master Wuwei.

"Senior, please follow me to the backyard to rest."

At this time, Wuwei Zhenren naturally would not make himself bored. He nodded to Li Zhiyi and led Cheng Shuyan to leave with Li Zhiyi.

"The Wu Yuelan they are talking about... is Li Zhixing's mother?" Cheng Shuyan couldn't help asking on the way.

Li Zhiyi's face was filled with worry. "She's too impulsive! How could Second Aunt be so impulsive? Has she considered what will happen to Li Zhixing?"

Cheng Shuyan was silent. Perhaps Wu Yuelan was nearing the end of her life and wanted to take a few people with her before she died to avenge her husband?

But if she makes such a fuss, the Li family will definitely not let Li Zhixing go and will definitely wipe out the entire family.

Even if Li Zhixing could escape death, how would he treat the Li family in the future?

On the one hand, the Li family has a sister like Li Zhiyi who treats him sincerely. On the other hand, his parents did die in the Li family.

Cheng Shuyan couldn't help but have a headache. After all, Wu Yue had given her the news about her sister. She should repay the favor and take Li Zhixing away as agreed.

But she also didn't want to implicate her master and the sect. If the Hidden World Sect took in Li Zhixing and the Li family found out, they would inevitably become enemies.

Given the strength of the Hidden World Sect, she didn't dare to drag her master and senior brothers and sisters to take this risk with her.

Seeing her tangle, Wuwei Zhenren touched her head and comforted her, "Just follow your heart. Master said that the Yinshi Sect emphasizes governing by inaction. Follow your heart.

It is important to keep your promises. Since you promised her, just do it. Don't worry about causing trouble for Master. It's just the Li family. Master is still confident that he can protect you."

At this point, Master Wuwei winked at her and said, "Besides, including your junior brother, there are only five of us in our sect. If we can't win, we can just run away!"

She couldn't help but laugh at Wuwei Zhenren's last sentence, but after hearing what Wuwei Zhenren said, she felt a lot more relieved.

"Thank you, Master. I understand."

Li Zhiyi also understood the meaning of Wuwei Zhenren's words. She was silent for a while, then suddenly turned around and knelt down.

"Thank you for your righteousness, Senior. Thank you, Ayan, for being willing to protect Zhixing."

Cheng Shuyan quickly helped her up. "Why do you have to do this? I have my reasons for keeping him here. But I'm afraid your life in the Li family will be difficult. What are your plans?"

Li Zhiyi laughed at himself, "Don't worry, our family didn't openly participate in this whole thing.

After all, I have dual spiritual roots and am the most talented descendant of the Li family in the past hundred years.

They still hope that I can support the Li family a hundred years from now, and the clan won't do anything to me."

……

In the front yard, many members of the Li family were lying on the ground in a mess. Without exception, their faces were flushed and they were vomiting blood.

Wu Yuelan's fierce laughter echoed in the ears of everyone in the Li family's front yard, "Hahaha, old man, as long as you can't kill me instantly, I will find a way to spread my curses throughout the entire front yard.

Come on! I want to see if you can afford the gamble!"

She looked like a madman, with spiritual energy raging all over her body, constantly dissipating in all directions.

In order to resist the erosion of spiritual power, the Li family cultivators could only close their five senses and pin their hopes on their ancestor being able to kill Wu Yuelan with one blow.

But doing so would be tantamount to handing one's life over to God. After all, Wu Yuelan was a cultivator in the late Foundation Establishment stage, and she still had the strength to withstand two moves from the Li family ancestor.

If she fights back desperately, no one can guarantee who she will drag down with her.

"Wu Yuelan, they are all innocent. Please stop killing innocent people. If you surrender, I promise to spare your son's life."

"Haha, promise? Old man, it was you who promised me that there must be a longevity elixir in that secret place on the edge of the Demon Clan that could extend your two lives by a hundred years. That's why I accepted my friend's invitation and took my fourth brother and Zhili to explore!

It was you who promised to keep my husband safe, and at most to put him in a water dungeon and give him some corporal punishment, so that I wouldn't tell the truth!

But what was the result? My fourth brother and that child, Zhili, died tragically in the demonic blood pond. Although I narrowly escaped death, I was also stained with the blood curse!

And my husband, he didn't die from obsession at all, it was you! He was the one who knew your secret..."

"Stop talking nonsense, you bitch!" Seeing that she was talking more and more, the ancestor of the Li family didn't care whether she would hurt the clan members or not, and hurriedly swung a knife and slashed towards Wu Yuelan.

The gap between Jindan cultivators and foundation-building cultivators is like a chasm, so how could it be so easy to block the angry attack of the Li family ancestor?

Wu Yuelan quickly mobilized all her spiritual power and fought hard, and finally managed to block the fatal blow, but she was also injured by the residual force.

Blood spurted out of his mouth and spilled onto the ground, and the surrounding flowers and plants suddenly lost their life.

She was so weak that she could hardly stand, but she still spread her spiritual power. Immediately, two more monks who did not have time to close their five senses were contaminated by her spiritual power.

"Hahahahaha, you old bastard, are you so angry now? Come on, as long as I have breath left, I will drag one more person to be buried with me!"

Wu Yuelan looked even more crazy, laughing loudly as she retreated step by step until she reached a rockery nearby.

She spat on the ground, a sly look flashing in her eyes: "Oh, what a Jindan Zhenren, he's just a rat in the gutter!"

As he spoke, he turned around and threw out a few spirit stones, which flew into the rockery before anyone could react.

"No! Stop her!"

The Li family's ancestor was shocked, but it was too late. The light of the formation in the rockery flashed, and Wu Yuelan disappeared on the spot.
